Question
My daughter is 8 years old. She has just started to feel a bit of throat pain and has difficulty swallowing. She also has a persistent high fever. How should I treat her tonsillitis fever for the best effect?
Answer
The treatment of pediatric tonsillitis can involve selecting sensitive antibiotic medications based on bacterial culture. In addition to systemic medication, regional treatments can also be performed, such as tonsil crypt irrigation or intratonsillar drug injection. If the child has throat pain, appropriate painkillers can be administered. If the child still has a fever, appropriate fever reduction measures should be taken. If the body temperature exceeds 40 degrees Celsius, it is advisable to seek medical attention promptly. If the medication is not effective and there are recurrent episodes, it is recommended to consider surgical treatment. Lastly, parents should pay attention to this disease and bring their children to the doctor for treatment as soon as possible. In addition, it is important to pay attention to related prevention and health care measures in daily life.
